Deadly Trench Collapse at JFK International Airport

by | Apr 5, 2023 | Construction Accident, Wrongful Death

There was a deadly construction accident at JFK International Airport in New York on April 3, 2023.  According to reports, two workers were relocating power lines outside a generation plant.  The workers became trapped in a 30 foot trench on the project.  Rescue attempts were unsuccessful.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to those impacted by this deadly accident.

Tragically, there have been a number of recent deaths on construction projects.  There was a deadly crash at a highway construction project in Woodlawn, Maryland on March 22, 2023.  There was a crane accident in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina on March 21, 2023.  There was a deadly construction accident in Fort Worth, Texas on March 29, 2023.  There was a deadly excavation accident in Victorville, California on March 29, 2023.

Despite being a vital part of the economy, construction projects often pose severe hazards both to construction workers and to the general public if precautions are not taken.  Each construction project poses its own unique risks and hazards based on the work being done.  Risks that may present themselves during a project must be carefully evaluated before the job begins.
